The Jagannathpur Temple and hill is considered to be one of the most revered and cherished pilgrimage spots in the state of Jharkhand. Being situated in the south western fringe of Ranchi, you will have to traverse a length of approximately 10 kilometers in order to reach Jagannathpur Temple and hill. Jagannathpur Temple in Jharkhand is the smaller version of the mammoth and grandiloquent shrine dedicated to Lord Jagannatha situated in Puri, Orissa. But the divine essence and placid ambiance are some of the qualities that are common to both the abodes of Lord Jagannath. The dream of the Jagannathpur Temple of Jharkhand was realized towards the beginning of the 17th century. Since, then it has continued to enchant and mesmerize the pilgrims who flock from all over the country to pay their homage to the Almighty and pray for their own health and well being and also their loved ones. The style that has been followed in the construction of Jagannathpur Temple at Jharkhand matches a lot with that of the original Jagannath Temple in Puri. This temple was however built during the year 1671. As it is located at a distance of 10 kilometers from Ranchi, the Jagannathpur Temple of Jharkhand is very easily accessible from any remote part of the country. One disappointing fact regarding the Jagannathpur Temple of Jharkhand is that, some of its portions urgently require renovation. One of the key features of the Jagannathpur Temple of Jharkhand is hugely popular 'Rath Yatra' festival that takes place in the month known as Ashadh.
